Neil Finn ~ Message To My Girl ~ Live in Amsterdam 2014

Neil Finn, solo on piano, performing the Split Enz tune, "Message To My Girl," live at the Koninklijk Theater Carré in Amsterdam, Netherlands on 9 May 2014 during the "Dizzy Heights" tour.
Lyrics:
I don't want to say "I love you"
That would give away too much
It's hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious
I don't want to say "I want you"
Even though I want you so much
It's wrapped up in conversation
It's whispered in a hush
Though I'm frightened by the word
Think it's time I made it heard
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
Now I wake up happy
Warm in a lovers' embrace
No one else can touch us
While we're in this place
So I'll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
Though I'm frightened by the word
Think it's time I made it heard
So I'll sing it to the world
Simple message to my girl
No more empty self possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
Oh there's nothing quite as real
As the touch of your sweet hands
I can't spend the rest of my life
Buried in the sand
